Converting Fluent String Objects to Strings

Throughout this course, we will see references to stringable objects or fluent strings. Fluent strings are an object-oriented wrapper around the Laravel string helper methods, which provides a convenient and natural API for working with those methods, with a few additional features.

When we see the term “fluent,” especially within the context of Laravel and the packages within its ecosystem, it often refers to an object that allows you to continuously chain method calls on the same object instance or a new instance of the same type. Everyday use cases for this are query builders, request builders, etc.
